According to a Briefly News source, the Stellies players are focused on finishing the season strong and are encouraged by coach Barker's words.
The source said:
"It has been an amazing season for the team, and all the boys are focused on getting into the Champions League next season. There were Bafana scouts at the match against Sundowns, so they know if they push hard enough, then they will be rewarded. Jayden [Adams] and Ikie [Iqraam Rayners] are some of the guys that were called up before, and there are a few more who want it."
